7 Articulated Connector Check the following to determine if maintenance is needed: a) Wedge height look through the access holes in the female connector, the wedge should not be bottomed out b) Cracks in either male or female casting c) Main pin tipped, broken, or cracked d) Retaining pin broken, bent, or missing e) Retaining pin cotter key missing f) Distance from nose of female to support box of male (< 2.25 <OR> > ) g) Clearance between male and female at center plate (< 0.75 ) D E C F A G 7
8 Axles (Field Manual Rule 43) Check for: Broken or visually cracked Damaged (such as gouges) between the wheel seats condemnable when >_ deep Bent Evidence of welding 8
9 Brake Rigging Check the brake rigging, levers, rods, pins, and support brackets for: Bent, broken, or missing components (including cotter keys) Binding or fouling: Levers Rods Hand brake chain Bell crank or sheave wheel Evidence of contact with the bolster Around brake rod opening holes Top, front, or back sides Worn brake shoes condemnable when <0.375 Worn hand brake chain Signs of sticking brakes, such as: Overheated wheels Brake beams against the wheels when brakes not set NOTE: Before removing a slack adjuster from a car, properly install the shipping bolt to prevent it from actuating during handling and shipping 9
10 Constant Contact Side Bearing (CCSB) (Field Manual Rule 62) Check the CCSB for: Bent parts Broken parts Missing parts Loose cage Metal caps worn (see indicators, if applicable) Worn body bolster wear plate Roller or solid block type clearance condemnable when: < >
11 Body wear plate Bottom side of body bolster wear plate 11
12 Coupler / Knuckle (Field Manual Rule 16, 17, 18) Drooping coupler is an indication of worn, broken, or missing components such as: Coupler shank Coupler carrier Coupler carrier wear plate Coupler support plate Draft key / Yoke pin Coupler key slot / Pin hole Yoke key slot / Pin hole Striker key slot Yoke wear plate (welded to inside roof of type F sill) 12
13 Check coupler for: Cracks (see AAR Field Manual for criteria) Broken out sections Worn contour Contour limit gauge E coupler Contour limit gauge F coupler Check knuckles for: Cracked (in any area) Worn nose Nose wear gauge 13
14 Draft system Striker Contact / Free Slack (AAR RP-101) NOTE: The cause could be a stuck draft gear. ALWAYS check for a stuck gear BEFORE checking free slack. If there is evidence of striker contact, measure the free slack : Push the coupler in by hand towards the striker as far as it will go Measure and record the coupler horn-tostriker distance Pull the coupler out by hand away from the striker as far as it will go Measure and record the coupler horn-tostriker distance Subtract the 2 measurements to get the free slack 14
15 Recommended maximum limits: AAR type E, EF, and F coupler 1.00 (AAR RP-101) FR304 rotary dump coupler 1.50 (Amsted Rail maintenance manual) If the free slack exceeds the recommended limits, the entire draft system should be inspected for worn, broken, or missing components such as: Draft key / vertical pin Coupler key slot / coupler pin hole Yoke key slot / yoke pin hole Coupler butt Follower block Draft gear friction components Draft gear housing Sill front and rear draft lugs 15
16 EOC (Hydraulic Cushioning Unit) (Field Manual Rule 59) Check the unit for: Leaking if hydraulic oil is observed on the unit, under the car, or on the wheel sets check the UCI function (unit condition indicator) by: Push the UCI button in If the button pops out, then the unit has a sufficient operating pressure to return the piston If the button does not pop back out, then the unit should be replaced NOTE: Clearly formed droplets is NOT a cause for renewal UNLESS the unit is not equipped with a UCI Cracked, broken, or missing components Not fully extended (check UCI function if not fully extended) Check for clearance for travel on all moving parts such as the train line brackets UCI (unit condition indicator) 16
17 UCI button NOTE: DISCHARGE all cushion units BEFORE removing from the car 17
18 Hatch Covers (vented / non-vented) Check hatch covers for: Broken or missing latch components (especially the latch spring) Broken or missing hinge components Broken or cracked hatch cover Torn or missing screen (vented hatch cover) Torn or damaged gasket Latch spring Screen Gasket Coaming 18
19 Outlet gate sticker Label placement above gates and on hatch covers Hatch cover sticker Ensure that stickers are on both hatch cover and above outlet gate To ensure a proper seal: Use a piece of paper (such as a dollar bill) Insert paper between coaming and gasket Close and latch the hatch cover The paper should not be able to be pulled out using moderate force Checking proper seal 19
20 Pellet Gates Check the pellet gates for: In the closed and latched position Latch screws are tight Broken or missing components Evidence of commodity leaking past the gaskets Shown in the closed and latched position 20
21 Shown in the open and unlatched position 21
22 Roller Bearings (Field Manual Rule 36) Check the roller bearings for: Cracked, broken, or bent components Seal case cocked, loose, or damaged Loose or missing end cap bolts Missing locking plate Loose backing ring Displaced adapter Cracked cup Displaced seal 22
23 Missing end cap bolt Missing locking plate Check for loose backing ring Dented seal 23
24 Trucks Amsted Rail Truck Types Amsted Rail produces a variety of truck designs (or suspension systems). The suspension system type can typically be found on one end of the bolster as shown. Abbreviations are as follows: SSRM = Super Service Ridemaster RIM = Ridemaster SSRC = Super Service Ride Control RC = Ride Control SM = Swing Motion 24 NOTE: MC = Motion Control, which is a truck system which uses the SSRM suspension system
25 Trucks Motion Control (MC) Motion Control is a truck system which uses the SSRM suspension system. If the side frame is an ASF (Amsted Rail) pattern number 470A (or 22470A) marked with any of the following, then you need to look at the bolster end for the suspension type: Motion Control Family of Trucks FOT The 470A (or 22470A) side frame is designed to accept the following suspension systems: SSRM = Super Service Ridemaster RIM = Ridemaster SSRC = Super Service Ride Control A Motion Control truck has the following four (4) items: SSRM suspension 7 D5O and 5-D5I load coils Long travel CCSB AdapterPlus pads <or> SCT S2-86 pads 25
26 Trucks Friction Shoe Height (Field Manual Rule 46) Friction shoe height is a comprehensive measurement of total control element wear and therefore is a key indicator as to whether or not repairs are needed to one of the following control elements: Friction shoe Column wear plate Bolster slope surface If the friction shoe height is within proper operating range, then no repair is needed to any of the above control elements unless a condemnable defect is found. There are two (2) ways to check friction shoe height: Visual shoe height indicator Friction shoe mustache (or yoke) gauge Visual indicators Yoke gauge 26
27 Trucks Friction Shoe Height Visual Indicators (Field Manual Rule 46) No maintenance is required when bottom edge of indicators are below top of bolster Control remains but repair is indicated when bottom edge of indicators are aligned with top of bolster Repair is indicated when bottom edge of indicators are above top of bolster 27
28 Trucks Friction Shoe Height Gauges (SSRM and RIM) (Field Manual Rule 46) Suspension Type ASF Gauge # Apply Gauge To Shoe At Allowable Rise Maintenance Manual RIM 100 Ton Top Center 1 RIM SSRM 100 Ton Top Center 1 MC 28
29 Trucks Friction Shoe Height Gauges (SSRC and RC) (Field Manual Rule 46) Suspension Type ASF Gauge # Apply Gauge To Shoe At Allowable Rise Maintenance Manual SSRC 100 Ton Line 2 Top Center 7/8 RC / SSRC RC 70,100, & 125 Ton Line 1 Top Center 7/8 RC / SSRC RC 70 Ton Low Level 5'-3" Wheel Base Line 3 Top Center 7/8 RC / SSRC RC 70 Ton Low Level 5'-1" Wheel Base Line 4 Top Center 7/8 RC / SSRC 29
30 Trucks Friction Shoe Height Gauges (SM) (Field Manual Rule 46) Suspension Type ASF Gauge # Apply Gauge To Shoe At Allowable Rise Maintenance Manual SM 70 Ton (5" bolster end height) Shoulder 11/16 SM SM 70 Ton (4.75" bolster end height) Shoulder 11/16 SM SM 70 Ton Low Deck Shoulder 11/16 SM SM 100 Ton Shoulder 11/16 SM SM 125 Ton Shoulder 11/16 SM 30
31 Trucks Friction Shoe Face Wear (Field Manual Rule 46) All friction shoes have cast in visual face wear indicators (these are the same visual indicators used to check friction shoe height). If any of the indicators are worn away, then both friction shoes should be replaced in that bolster end. No maintenance is required when all visual indicators are present Friction shoe should be replaced when any of the visual indicators are no longer present 31
32 Trucks - Springs (Field Manual Rule 50) Check both load and control coils for: Broken Missing Displaced Control coil on a RC/SSRC truck 32
33 Trucks Column Wear Plates and Bolts (Field Manual Rule 48) Check column wear plates for: Cracked Broken Missing Loose Worn through Check column wear plate bolts for: Loose Missing 33
34 Trucks - Bolster Gibs / Side Frame Columns (Field Manual Rule 46) Check bolster gibs and side frame columns for excessive wear. If worn, measure total gib clearance: Measure and add both inside and outside gib clearance at each position (i.e. R1 position has inside =.75 and outside = 1.00, then total clearance = 1.75 ) Repair when total clearance between gibs and columns exceed 1.50 NOTE the SM truck does not have gibs by design 34
35 Trucks Adapter Plus Pads / Pedestal Roof Wear Liner (Field Manual Rule 37, 46 & 48) Check AdapterPlus pads for: Minimum 1/16 clearance between any point of the pedestal roof / adapter rail interface Pad distortion Serious cracks or tears (all the way through the pad) Check snap on pedestal roof wear liners for: Missing, broken, or cracked such that it no longer provides a full bearing surface for the adapter crown to rest against 35
36 Trucks Top of Bolster Bowl to Car Body Clearance (Field Manual Rule 47) Check the clearance between top of the bolster bowl and bottom of the car body. Clearance is condemnable when: If <_.063 at any time If >.063 and <.125 when in shop No clearance 36
37 Trucks Cracks in Side Frame or Bolster (Field Manual Rule 47 & 48) Inspect the side frame and bolster for cracks or signs of rust bleed. Key areas to inspect are: Side Frame: Inner pedestal radius Turn of spring seat Top corners of bolster opening window Inner pedestal radius Bolster: Around the brake rod opening holes Turn of the spring seat Center bowl rim Gibs Top corner of bolster opening window 37
38 Trucks Bolster Offset Longitudinally It is fairly common to see the bolster offset longitudinally within the side frame (1 friction shoe higher than the other) this is NOT a concern. This happens when the car experiences a high longitudinal impact (such as slack action or during coupling), especially when empty. This high impact forces 1 friction shoe down allowing the bolster to offset within the side frame. During normal service, the control coil force will re-center the bolster (until another high impact). 38
39 Trucks Swing Motion In addition to checking the SM truck for other criteria listed above (except gib clearance): Check for clearance and signs of contact between the underside of the rocker seat and the raised pads on the side frame tension member A 3/32 thick feeler must pass through the rocker seat and the raised pad on the tension member when the side frames are in the neutral position (side frames are to be perpendicular to top of the rails) 39
40 Twin-Pack Draft Gear (Field Manual Rule 21) Because of the unique design of the Twin-Pack, striker contact may occur under extremely high impacts. If striker contact is observed: Measure the free slack Check the Twin-Pack for damaged or missing components Check that the unit is tight in the draft gear pocket If all 3 conditions above are satisfactory, then no further attention is required except repairing any damage to the striker face. 40
41 Note the following are NOT a cause for renewal per Rule 21: A broken or missing guide rod. The guide rod is used to gag the gear Partial tearing of the pads or splitting/separation of rubber from metal plates Normal partial tears Guide rod Gag nut Retainer Normal partial bond separation of elastomer pad and steel plate 41
42 Wear Eliminators Check any plastic wear eliminators, such as: Bolster bowl liners Brake beam liners Coupler carriers Coupler carrier wear plates Brake rod protectors Check for abnormal conditions that would affect operation, such as: Missing Cracked, torn, or broken out sections Heavy wear Deep gouges Obvious color changes (indicating distress) 42
43 Wheels (Field Manual Rule 41) There are numerous wheel defects to look for here are some of the most common: Thin flange condemnable when <_.938 when measured with approved gauge High flange condemnable when >_ 1.5 Cracked, chipped, or broken flange Cracked, broken, shattered, or spread rim Thin rim condemnable when: <_.75 for 30 and 33 wheels <_.875 for 28, 36, and 38 wheels Thin flange High flange & Rim thickness 43
44 Wheels (Field Manual Rule 41) cont. There is numerous wheel damage to look for here are some of the most common: Shelled tread condemnable when: >_ 1.0 diameter with no islands >_ 2 in length Built up tread condemnable when >_.125 Grooved tread condemnable when >_.125 Scrape, dent, or gouge condemnable when >_.125 Thermal cracks: Transverse cracks running parallel to the axle Not tightly grouped Shelled tread Grooved tread Thermal cracks 44
45 Heat checks: Are NOT condemnable Run at an angle Appear in tight uniform groups Out of round or flat spots: Out of round run-out condemnable when >.070 High Impact Wheel >_ 90 kip reading at any time >_ 80 kip when in a shop Slid flat condemnable when: 2.0 in length 2 or more adjoining spots each >_ 1.5 in length Hollow worn condemnable when: > 5 mm any time > 4 mm when in a shop Hollow worn 45
